Understanding
the difference between XML and HTML
XML and HTML
are different and they both have different goals. They are designed for
different purposes. Some people think that xml is an advanced version
of html and it has come to replace html. It is not the case. Both will
be there as they are used for different purposes.
_______________________________________________
XML
files are meant to hold data and data in an xml file is well described.
If you look at an xml file you can say what it holds. For example if you
find a number in an xml file you can find out easily what that number
identifies, whether it is the number of products, or the price of a product
etc. In html it is not the case.
HTML is used
to display the data in a formatted way. You can apply styles and use different
layouts to display the data in an html file. The data that is displayed
in an html file could come from an xml file.
So to say
in simple words, html displays the data and xml holds the data!
